SUMMARY:Thomas Gao - ADHD and the Lived Experience: A Phenomenological Inquiry of the Mental Disorder
DESCRIPTION:ADHD and the Lived Experience: A Phenomenological Inquiry of the Mental Disorder\na presentation by MHC Undergraduate Fellow Thomas Gao\n\nWednesday\, April 15\, 2026\n5:00 PM\nIMRC Center 104\nFernald Adaptive Presentation and Performance Environment\nUniversity of Maine\, Orono\, ME\n\nThomas Gao is a Psychology major whose project ADHD and the Lived Experience: A Phenomenological Inquiry of the Mental Disorder explores Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) through the perspective of phenomenology to provide a new framework to understanding ADHD beyond its classification in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. For this research\, Gao worked with faculty mentor Susan Bredlau\, Assistant Professor of Philosophy. Gao’s Fellowship is supported by the Sandra Merrill Peters and John G. Peters Humanities Fellowship Fund. \n\nInfo: \nPhenomenology is a philosophical study that focuses on the human experiences and consciousness. It seeks to understand the world as how it appears to the individual\, emphasizing subjective perception over the idea of an “objective reality.” By investigating Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) through a phenomenological perspective\, integrating personal\, historical accounts and academic sources\, this presentation will explore how we can better understand its classification as a neurodevelopmental disorder\, as well as bridge the disconnect between the symptom-first diagnostic approach that we currently employ and the patients’ subjective experiences.\n\n\nFor more details\, email mhc@maine.edu
